A Parisian Idyll, a fundraising dinner planned for July 2010 in association with the Rupert Bunny: artist in Paris exhibition, raised income of $5 518 in 2009-2010, as well as sponsorship from Smeg of $14 000.
Rae Grierson was the Executive Officer of the Foundation from July to October 2009. In January 2010 Charlotte Smith commenced as Executive Officer of the Foundation.
During the past twelve months, fifteen Foundation members pledged additional financial commitment to the Foundation and as a result were upgraded to higher levels of the Foundation. Twenty-eight members renewed their membership to the Foundation, and there were fifteen new members.

CONTEMPORARY COLLECTORS The membership of Contemporary Collectors (CC) continued to grow as an active membership group of the Art Gallery of South Australia.
Contemporary Collectors provided an annual program of activities for members, which included educational, social and travel opportunities for members to meet collectors, curators and artists. The primary objective of this program is to connect members with the Art Gallery. Of special interest to CC members is the opportunity to view private art collections of prominent collectors. ‘Eat Your Art Out’ events in the homes of private collectors continued to e popular. Each event ran at a healthy surplus and they are in high demand. Tours were organised to the 26th Telstra National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art Awards in Darwin, to the Asia Pacific Triennial in Brisbane, and to the 17th Sydney Biennale. Four Eat Your Art Out events were held.
In the past financial year, Patricia Piccinini’s Big mother was acquired, a ground breaking addition to the collection purchased entirely from donations of CC members. Over 50 000 people visited Big mother in the first six weeks of display, including many first time visitors to the Gallery. During this time ‘contemporary art’ was cited as the primary reason for visiting the Gallery.
Each year, through the Art Gallery, Contemporary Collectors commissions an artist to create an edition of forty works of art. These works of art are available exclusively to CC members for purchase at an end of year
21 function. This year, another prominent South Australian artist, Darren Siwes, was commissioned for this project. CC Editions raised $30 301.
In May, Sonia Berry-Law resigned from her position of Coordinator Contemporary Collectors. Charlotte Smith is acting in the role until a replacement is appointed.
At 30 June 2010 active membership of Active Contemporary Collectors was as follows: memberships Individual Memberships 27 Joint Memberships 77 Corporate Memberships 4 Circle – Individual 9 Circle – Joint 7 Circle - Corporate 4 TOTAL MEMBERSHIP 128
In the 2009-2010 financial year, Contemporary Collectors raised $294,000 from Membership subscriptions, events, sponsors and donations. In addition, Contemporary Collectors sourced $28,110 from the following in- kind sponsors:
Aesop, Angelakis Bros, Constellation Wines, Splitrock & Tiro, Screencheck, and Type Space Design.
MEMBERS OF THE ART GALLERY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA The Art Gallery Membership continued to grow with changes occurring in staffing and program delivery.
Members’ events proved very popular, often booking to capacity. A program offering a selection of educational and social events catered for varying interests. The program included welcome orientation tours for new members, lectures and escorted excursions such as a SALA Festival Crawl visiting a selection of metropolitan galleries and studios accompanied by Jane Messenger, AGSA Curator of European Art and Philip LaForgia, AGSA Gallery Guide. The Members’ End of Year Party was very well attended and included an after-dark viewing of the John Brack exhibition and an exclusive talk in the exhibition by Helen Brack. Members and their guests were able to join Charlotte Day and Sarah Tutton, curators of Before and After Science: 2010 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art in discussion about the content and themes for the Adelaide Biennial and enjoy an exclusive tour of the exhibition.
A three-day interstate tour was organised for Members and led by Gallery Guides, Christine Guille and Pam Ward, to Canberra in March. Members visited the Masterpieces from Paris: Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cézanne and beyond exhibition at the National Gallery of Australia including some of the best-known works of modern art drawn from the Musée d’Orsay, Paris. The itinerary also included visits to Old Parliament House, the National Museum of Australia and the National Portrait Gallery.
The promotion at the exhibition ticket desk to ‘Join as a Member today, and see the exhibition free’ continues to encourage new memberships and the attractively packaged Gift of Membership on offer in the Bookshop or available to purchase online from the Art Gallery website remains popular. As at 30 June 2010, the total number of Members was 2351.

RE-FRAMING AND PEDESTALS PROGRAM The Gallery continued an active program of reframing and pedestal construction and improvement. A total of five plinths, one pedestal and twelve frames were constructed.
COLLECTIONS MANAGEMENT 3 599 images added to the database (total of 31 155).
ACCESS TO COLLECTIONS & RESOURCES The David Murray Print Viewing Room was visited by a total of 126 visitors, including tertiary students and individual scholars undertaking research. These visits were supervised by the Associate Curator of Prints,
24 Drawings & Photographs. In addition the Education Officer has facilitated access to the collection by school students.
INSTALLATION AND OFFSITE STORE During the year the Gallery’s installation team were responsible for the movement of 11 404 works of art: these included changes to the permanent display, exhibition installation, curatorial research, conservation, reframing, outward loans, photography and public access. Of this total the Gallery’s off-site store team moved 2 015 works to and from the offsite store.
RESEARCH LIBRARY 1 262 items were accessioned, over half of which were donations, following the pattern of previous years. This year’s donors included the National Gallery of Australia Research Library, Peter Ward and Naomi Williams. The archival collection has been boosted by the acquisition of Marjorie Hann’s papers. The total of catalogued items stands at 36 500; a stocktake was conducted in early 2010. The continual growth of the collective Library, Archives and Records is causing a shelving problem.
While keeping up with current tasks, library staff and volunteers are also involved in various projects. The retrospective cataloguing project of books and exhibition catalogues begun in 1988 is nearing completion, thus enabling the launch of another long-term project: the cataloguing of the sales catalogues collection, which had been recalled from the offsite store in 2007. AGSA Library is adding bibliographic records with holdings for this category of material to the Australian National Bibliographic Database via Libraries Australia.
Much work has been done on archival documents. The indexing of the AGSA Bulletin has been completed, similarly the AGSA Newsletter from 1975-2009. GRG 19/51 Letters sent by the Curator of the Art Gallery, 21 September 1892–5 July 1909 has been fully transcribed, and the transcription of GRG 19/2 Letters received by the Curator of the Art Gallery, 1892-1906, 1908 has begun.
Ju Phan attended the ALIA National Library and Information Technicians Conference in September 2009.
GRADUATE STUDIES IN ART HISTORY The joint Art Gallery and University program is now in its tenth year, with renewed demand for the various courses. In a new development, initiated by Associate Professor Catherine Speck, 2010 also witnessed the program’s venture into online teaching, making Australian Art accessible to students who are unable to visit Adelaide University and the Art Gallery on a weekly basis. Renaissance scholar Dr Lisa Mansfield also continued to bring distinction to the course, receiving the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences 2009 ‘Award for Outstanding Student Feedback in Learning and Teaching’.

25 PUBLIC PROGRAMS The Public Program at the Art Gallery of South Australia was developed to enhance the visitor experience and audience development. A broad and engaging range of high quality educational and experiential activities included talks, children & family programs, workshops, lectures, films, performances and symposia. Presented largely free throughout the year in association with our collection and temporary exhibitions, the most comprehensive and best supported programs were developed for the exhibitions Making Nature: Masters of European Landscape Art, John Brack, Before and After Science: 2010 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art, Reflections of the Lotus: Art from Thailand, Burma, Cambodia and Laos and Candid Camera: Australian photography 1950s- 1970s. Additional programming included workshops for Members, events based around music and dining, culture days and studio visits.
Two highly successful Culture Days were presented in support of the collection display of Aboriginal Art (6 September) and the Southeast Asian Culture Day, presented in conjunction with Reflections of the Lotus: Art from Thailand, Burma, Cambodia and Laos (6 June). Both events were well attended. In particular, members of the Thai community of South Australia provided entertainment and performances that considerably enhanced public enjoyment of the event.
During the year 11 953 patrons participated in a public program event. Including free Guided tours, in excess of 24 000 patrons enjoyed the educational opportunities provided by the Gallery.
On the basis of its long-standing commitment to children and family programs, the Gallery secured funding support from the Balnaves Foundation to enhance its programs. Beginning in July, the START at the Gallery program proved instantly popular and has continued to be impressively supported. The START program provides an integrated experience to encourage learning and understanding of the Gallery's collections and exhibitions.
Especially significant collection tours and performances were conducted during Easter and just prior to Christmas.
The Gallery hosted a range of events in partnership with the South Australian Living Artists Festival, University of Adelaide, Contemporary Art Centre of South Australia and Jam Factory Contemporary Craft & Design in support of the visual arts in South Australia.
This year the Art Gallery presented a program of six major exhibitions, the SALA exhibition and ten significant collections displays. Public Programs coordinated the national tours of Hans Heysen and Misty Moderns: Australian Tonalists 1915 -1950, for which funding from Visions of Australia was secured. National tour itineraries were also developed for forthcoming exhibitions Desert Country and Reflections of the Lotus.
Appendix I gives a complete list of Exhibitions and selected Public Programs.
THE BOOKSHOP The 2009-2010 financial year has been a difficult one for the Bookshop. There were no exhibitions that could be accompanied by special shops and this limited sales opportunities. Also current troubling retail conditions acted as a dampener on sales, which even affected the usually buoyant Christmas season.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY The Art Gallery is on a continuing replacement policy of renewing its client PC infrastructure with four personal computer being replaced each quarter.
ART GALLERY WEBSITE The Gallery website is a key source of current and archived information, providing a valuable resource to the general public, students and media on gallery activities, the collections, including the online collection, exhibitions, education services, membership and function facilities.
From the statistics it can be seen that the Gallery website is being used regularly as a primary source for information about the gallery and its collection. Part of this success is the Online Gallery that now displays more than 4% of the Gallery’s collection and the majority of the Gallery’s major works.
26 As you can see from the following graphs the Art Gallery’s website is still experiencing an upward trend of usage.
The usage of the online collection is still being partronized very well with 393 010 views of works online for the last 186 days working out to an average of 2 103 detailed views of works online in one 24 hour period, or 1.5 works every minute of the day.

PUBLICATIONS The Publication section continues to work as an efficient and effective unit within the Gallery.
The Gallery had a succesful year with its publishing program, particularly due to the sales of the Hans Heysen book that needed to be reprinted to meet the sales demands of the tour. A number of titles, in varying formats, were produced to accompany exhibitions. Also a varying range of merchandise was produced. A complete list of titles and merchandise can be found in Appendix L.
Image Sales continues to grow as the Gallery’s works of art are requested more often. Seventy-eight requests for high-quality colour images were processed along with four black & white images and five transparencies. Over eighty digital images were supplied via email for research purposes to academics, guides and other galleries. Images were provided to national and international magazines for promotion of the Gallery. Many images were supplied free of charge for curatorial, educational and promotional purposes as a means of
27 providing access to the Gallery’s collections. As a condition of reproduction many complimentary copies of books were added to the Gallery’s Library.
EDUCATION SERVICES The Gallery based Education Manager, Mark Fischer, coordinated a diverse range of schools programs assisted by Karina Morgan, Education Support Officer. The Education Services program is the result of a partnership between the Art Gallery of South Australia and the Department of Education and Children’s Services (DECS). It is part of Outreach Education, a team of DECS teachers seconded to public organisations. The Education Manager supports student learning by delivering learning programs to student groups from reception to Year 13 (R-13), creatively connecting the Gallery collection, temporary exhibitions / displays, and DECS curriculum. The volunteer Education Guides, who were trained and coordinated by the Education Manager, also provided invaluable visual art learning support for (R-13) school groups. Learning areas supported by Education Services included Visual Arts, Society and Environment, Science, English and Languages. A series of practical based Studio Workshop programs were offered for both students and teachers, aimed at developing practical skills in relation to works of art within the collection and / or temporary exhibitions.
TEACHING & LEARNING
The Education Officer and Education Guides’ learning programs were based on DECS priorities and cross- curricular perspectives for the full range of year levels, related to the Gallery’s collection. Teaching and learning programs were presented for all temporary exhibitions. Eleven percent of total school bookings were related to studies of Aboriginal art and to Indigenous’ perspectives within the colonial to modern period within Australia. 1,274 primary and senior secondary students participated in learning programs with practicing South Australian artists, including a Video Art Seminar.
The ‘Small Talk’ program encouraged primary school students to have a voice about the works of art they viewed when visiting the Gallery. As part of ‘Small Talk’, students were invited to write labels for the exhibits. The best writing was displayed as a blue label next to the works of art. The ‘Small Talk’ program continued to engage and support primary student literacy with 756 students participating. Education Services offered specialised programs for senior secondary language students studying German, French, Spanish or Indonesian. The Education Services program included a series of interpretative performances, where students gained insights into works of art through the use of movement, sound and story-telling.
TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Introductory and specialised training for teachers R – SACE, provided information about current programs and for developing skills in accessing and using the Gallery’s resources.
Over 502 teachers participated in the professional learning program. A key outcome of this program is that teachers enhance their knowledge, skills and capabilities to support student cultural and visual arts education learning.
Three Teacher Briefings were conducted by the Outreach Education Manager with support of Gallery Curators for the following exhibitions:
John Brack (19 October 2009,) Adelaide Biennial: Before and After Science (02 March 2010), Candid Camera/Reflections of the Lotus (03 June 2010).
A total of 142 teachers participated in these briefings.
This professional learning program was enhanced by a series of seven practical based Studio Workshops for 91 educators linked to the AGSA collection and / or temporary exhibitions.
CURRICULUM RESOURCES
Access and engagement of young people through on-line strategies continues to be a focus with the production of education resources (print and online) produced for:
28 Making Nature: Masters of European Landscape Art, and Adelaide Biennial: Before and After Science. The ‘Learning’ area of the website totalled 42760 hits, with Learning Downloads totalling 11 533. Education Services online pre-visit learning object ‘Unpacking Agsa’ continued to engage middle years students to look and learn about various elements in works of art from the AGSA collection, with over 765 downloads.
Six Education Services newsletters were produced and distributed to all Catholic, Independent and DECS schools. Newsletters were also distributed via an electronic subscriber list.
VOLUNTEER GALLERY GUIDE SERVICE Sixty-two persons contributed to the Volunteer Guide Service at the Gallery in 2009-10.
Special language tours were offered in Armenian, Farsi, French, German, Italian and Spanish.

Guides have also been recruited to respond to specific written enquiries from students.
Guides presented events for Members including an interstate trip to the National Gallery of Australia to view the Masterpieces exhibition and historical walking tours of the North Terrace precinct and Port Adelaide.
In August, twenty guides were offered support from the Gallery to enable them to participate in the biennial AAGGO (Association of Australian Gallery Guiding Organisations) Conference on the theme of ‘Passion and Patronage’ in Melbourne.
Other major highlights of the year were developing a web based secure on-line database of guides' research papers, improving our ability to respond to tour enquiries and the late openings during the Adelaide Festival where guides provided 11 tours of the Biennial at 6pm for 221 visitors.
29 APPENDIX A CHARTER AND GOALS OF THE ART GALLERY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA
To enable the South Australian and the wider community to experience directly high-quality works of visual art; to ensure that the experience is enlivening and enriching; and to demonstrate that a significant expression of South Australian life can be experienced in South Australian works of art. GOALS
COLLECTION The Gallery will identify and hold historically important works of art of aesthetic excellence and of regional significance in accordance with the Gallery's collections policies. Works on loan to the Gallery's collections will also be subject to those policies. PRESERVATION The Gallery will ensure the preservation and conservation of its collections by maintaining them in standard environmentally controlled conditions, by handling them safely and by ensuring their security at all times. The Gallery should stabilise or restore deteriorating or damaged works in its collections. Works temporarily in the Gallery's custody will receive the same environmental safeguards, safe handling and security as works in the Gallery's collections. DOCUMENTATION The Gallery will fully document its collections with a central catalogue system that includes complete visual as well as written records. Undocumented works temporarily in the Gallery's custody will also receive written and visual documentation. RESEARCH The Gallery will research and evaluate its collections (and related material) so that the collections' display, interpretation and promotion are carried out with integrity. The Gallery should make its collections and associated documentation accessible to others for the purposes of research. DISPLAY The Gallery will display its collections and program its temporary exhibitions in ways which enhance appreciation of the collections; displays should provide pleasure and education by being visually pleasing as well as appropriate for the particular public for whom they are intended; displays will be devised for the special interests of the specialist visual arts community as well as for the general public. Temporary exhibitions should be programmed to provide displays of works of art belonging to categories poorly represented in South Australia's collections. The Gallery will provide accurate and intelligible labels for works on display. Within normal security and conservation constraints, and provided there is clear public benefit, the Gallery should make works from its collections available for display elsewhere. INTERPRETATION The Gallery will provide easily accessible interpretative information about the collection displays and the temporary exhibitions in the form of signs and wall texts as well as public programs of publications, films, lectures, seminars and the services of Education Officers, Gallery Guides and other communicators. Interpretative services will be provided at various levels relevant to the Gallery’s various publics, from the specialist visual arts community to the least informed general public. PROMOTION The Gallery will promote its collections and temporary exhibitions, will promote in the community an awareness of art museum functions and of what can be gained from works of art, and should evaluate and act on the public's needs and responses to the Gallery's activities. ADVICE The Gallery should responsibly exercise its legislative function of advising the South Australian Government on the allocation of South Australian resources to works of art, art collections, art museums and art associations. REVIEW The Gallery will frequently evaluate and review its goals and tasks and the effectiveness of their implementation.
